Part 2
More Things that make us want to HURL!
Women who sit at home all day and then have the nerve to tell me "I'm so
jealous of you people who get to work in air conditioned offices all day".
People who sanctimoniously disparage and denounce those, such as Candace
Cameron Bure, who wed young, while either willfully ignoring or obdurately
refusing to recognize the young newlyweds' perfectly legitimate reasons for
their unions, e.g. the expedited maturation process engendered by
experiences involved with their high-profile stations and demanding
occupations.
Women who assume that simply because another woman poses nude, is a stripper,
or works in the sex industry, that she is somehow automatically unintelligent
or less deserving of respect than others.
Women who tell me that a "normal woman" wouldn't be interested in
martial arts.
Women who assume that I'll fail miserably when I let them know that I
like theoretical
physics.
People that think that because I am a dancer I can twist myself into any
position their sick mind can think of and that I will for them.
My Male english teacher who described the girl in the Crucible (the
conniving(sp) bitch) as a "typical female".
(P.S., something I loved: The guy that stood up and yelled "women's rights!"
after he said that)
The girl in my keyboarding class who couldn't figure out how to turn on the
computer when there was a huge button in front of her that said POWER.
Anyone who owns one of those trendy bookbag patches that says "Girls rule
Boys drool"
My sister (among others) who describe someone with multiple peircings, odd
hair, and black clothing as "my" people. As in, "Look, ellen, there go YOUR
people"
That guy that thinks I'll fuck him because I'm a "Freak"
Neve Cambell's character in Scream. (Ok, millions of people have been
killed, up until know your boyfriend had been the prime suspect, your at
someone else's party, and NOW you decide you'll put out for him)
ANYONE sans firsthand experience of abortion who while claiming that
there is no stigma attached to having one, uses qualifiers like
"convenient" and "easy" to describe it.
WOMEN who during discussions about abortion throw out theoretical crap
like "I support the right to chose but personally I don't think I could
have one," thank me for sharing my "difficult decision" when I state
that I have had an abortion, and then later tell me in confidence about
the time when they thought they were pregnant and the first thing that
flashed through their minds was abortion.
ANYONE who professes to be a "protector of the unborn" and then cannot
tell me why a fetus conceived through rape is ok to "kill" but one
conceived when contraception fails is not, or offers up a pathetic
display of ethical hairsplitting yap about "the greater victim" and
"moral threshholds" because they are too busy believing they know all
the answers to realize that rationalization is not the same thing as
reasoning.
ANYONE who shrieks in ethical horror and demands to be told how I
"justify it" when state I am pro-choice and oppose capital punishment.
Anybody's perfect anything! If the human race was meant to be perfect, i
wouldn't have been born.
Women who get married, feel no need to continue to educate themselves
(because now they have a husband and nothing else matters) and then get
all bitter when their husband leaves them for someone who can hold a
conversation on something more cerebral than Oprah.
Men who tell me "I think our friendship would be more solid if we had
sex, and got it out of the way." My response: "Not with someone else's
body, honey."
Listening to women at work standing in the hallway, saying "Well,
yesterday Oprah said...". For god's sake! Get a life, and an education.
Purposeful ignorance. There is a certain basic level of awareness and
knowledge without which it is difficult to move on to more advanced
things like engineering, poetry, physics, composing or political
science. Refusing to learn to add or spell does not make one an
intellectual individual. It makes one an idiot.
Finally screwing up the courage to finish my degree (and all that that
entails) and having some random male say, "Aren't you a bit old to be a
student?"
Any man who says a man can't be "just friends" with a woman and then
continuously defends his female forays with "she's just a friend!".
People who confuse femininity with idiotic, cutesy, giggly,
hair-tossing, hanging-all-over-a-man,
flirt-till-everyone-around-you-wants-to-puke girlishness.
Former boyfriends who think you should feel complimented that their fat
slob of a co-worker discussed with him what nice tits you have.
Self-rightious vegetarians who don't see the contradiction in their
Mickey D's stock or hideous leather sandals.
Men who think that they look sexy in a speedo bathing suit when they haven't seen their knees in twenty years, even when they sit down. Gaggg.
Women that I accidentally date that are nothing more than spine-less,
codependant puppydogs.
Women that never
speak their mind or stand up for themselves.
Women that will give up
everything, even their choice of education, for a man.
Women that don't eat
because they might not look like the heroin addict in the Calvin Kline
ads. It's revolting.
People who assume that just because
I'm bi I'll fuck anything.
Men who say that women are "naturally less
interested in sex than men." Yeah, maybe if men spent so goddamned much
time and money growing their hair, shaving their legs, wearing perfume,
and generally making sure they looked half decent to US instead of like
Goodwill-salvage losers, we'd be more interested in sex with them.
Gay men who wouldn't even notice if the female half of the
race dropped off the planet one day.
Straight men who barely bathe and
dress like pigs who are terrified of some gay guy hitting on them.
Men who get all pissy when you complain about being harassed or
assaulted, and scream bloody murder about how you "hate men" because
you're complaining about being threatened on the street. What the fuck
-- they can't handle a woman complaining? Personally, I think that if a
guy is offended when a woman complains about getting her ass grabbed in
public, he's probably done it but gotten away with it so far, or he's
fantasized about it. Give me air.
Men who walk right past me when I'm in grubby sweatpants
and a t shirt, and who then slobber all over me and try to act like Mr.
Personality when I'm dressed up. Like I can't tell the fucking
difference.
Men who DON'T EVEN KNOW MY NAME, and come up to me when I'm dressed up and say, "I think you're a fascinating person
and I'd like to get to know you better." Really? You think I'm
fascinating and want to know more about me? Well, let's see -- I'm a
vocal proponent of the second amendment and I laugh at the gory parts in
"Hothead Paisan," especially the part where she ripped out this
gang-rapist's spine through his asshole. Still think I'm fascinating?
Men who walk up to me and start smoothing on me when
I'm wearing something tight/pretty/whatever and who look like they
grabbed their clothes out of the hamper. THEN, if I don't give them the
time of day, I'm a stuck-up bitch who just wants to talk to goodlooking
people. Yo asshole, what did you come up to ME for? My
Mother-Theresa-like inner beauty or that crushed cranberry velvet
stretch leotard I was wearing?
Guys who read philosophy and smoke pot all day, as if this makes them sooo
enlightened. I'm sure your two remaining neurons are, but what about the
rest?!?
When a group of white people have decided to elect you "honorary white person" because you don't rake them over the coals for past cultural grievances.
People who think proper english is utilized soley by white people, and therefore refer to it as "talking white". Good standard english is effective communication people!!!!!!!
Snotty yuppie mothers who have no jobs and sit around all day painting
little wooden plaques and benches to put on their porch, as well as the
matching t-shirt and leggings outfits for them and their daughters. Can we
say traumatizing? I would pity these girls, except they turn out to be
snots, just like their mothers.
Men
who try to treat me like a goddamned blow-up fuck doll because I'm thin and
have long hair, and women who think I'm to blame for anorexia.
Hey, I didn't ask for this DNA from my parents. You don't like the way
I look, avert your eyes.
People who never ask you how YOU are doing, but only ask
how your S.O. is doing. As if your only self worth or key
to happiness is in the welfare of your current partner. It's
a PARTNERSHIP, dammit! There's TWO of us ... ask about the
one you're talking to.
Girls who get all into this tough,
I-don't-like-men-makeup-clothes-or-other-girly-stuff then proceed to give
you unwanted advice about the same subjects.
People who think Wicca is Satanistic.
People who think Wicca is just a stage I'm going through.
When I'm into a hobby, people asking me what I'm going to do when I'm tired
of it.
Girls who take months getting over some asshole who treated them badly,
and then get back together with him.
Hypocritical traditionalists who rant about how we need to
revamp 'government spending' to get rid of all the 'special
breaks' like welfare that are allowed, because 'It's their
responsibility how they run their lives. Why should the
gov't give them more money because of the way they spend what
they've got?', AND THEN turn around and SHIT CINDER BLOCKS when
you suggest cutting out 'special breaks' like home mortgage
interest DEDUCTIONS, EXEMPTIONS for having kids, and not paying
as much tax because they made THEIR money by selling their house
rather than by flipping burgers at McDonald's.
TV. The big glass tit ( or dick, depending on your affinities ).
Commercials and products for "dieting" that
are aimed exclusively at women that make the very sort of women *I*
find sexy walk around thinking they're dogs.
Men who at 43 don't know the difference between being "young at heart" and
just plain bloody immature.
Guys on the internet who automatically assume that since I make time to
learn, formulate intelligent things to say and speak my mind, I am just so
eager for cybersex because I must be a nerd who 'has no chance of getting
any in real life'.
Morons who chalk up your every intelligent argument to sexual
frustation.
Immature boys over the internet who assume all females are instantly
attracted to them because they use lovely, repulsive names like "12
InChEs Of GoOdNeSs".
Ex-boyfriends who assume that since I dated them once, I would stoop to that level again.
Picture-perfect girls who do it all and therefore assume they are
national treasures - you know the type; in band and choir and sports and
cheerleading (yes, really, show the ENTIRE SCHOOL your underwear again)
and Honors (who screwed up the test scores?).
Men who expect constant oral sex, but go "Oh no way", when you suggest
they reciprocate.
Straight men who think that every gay man on earth wants to have sex with
them and who think that they can "cure" any lesbian.
Men who say that women are co-dependent and always need a man, but have three or
four women themselves, and can't stand to spend a night alone.
People who say, "That's SO Gay!"
People who actually believe that education is the only way to fix social
problems. Get real! Most "school" problems are HOME problems. And for
crying out loud, this whole "moment of silence" bullshit isn't going to
make anyone a better person. "Morals and values" aren't learned in
schools, they're learned from parents. NIMRODS!
Men who automatically assume that HBI must be run by a bunch of man-hating
lesbians, because no REAL heterosexual woman would EVER say anything negative
about MEN - REAL women (tm) know that any kind of
outspoken behavior might make them (god forbid!) unattractive to men, so they
sit quietly at home, by the phone, waiting for Mr. Right to call... while the
man-haters run nasty websites that reveal ugly truths.
Feminists who are racist, minorities who are sexist.
People that won't accept an honest compliment.
Feminists who believe that housekeeping is a menial task.
Men who think housekeeping is a menial task.
Couples who claim they "never fight." My fiancee and I argue a lot, so
one day a self-righteous friend of mine decided to "point out" that he and
his girlfriend "never fight," because they're "truly" in love. He went on to
say that my relationship was seriously flawed. Later, when we got to
meet his girlfriend, we found out why they "never fight". She's a
sycophant!! She has no personality, she whines, and most importantly,
she does EVERYTHING HE SAYS!! HELLO!! No wonder they don't fight,
he's going out with a fucking HERD ANIMAL!!
People who think "commitment" means blind acceptance and romantic stupidity.
After I explained to the afore-mentioned friend that my fiancee and I are together only because we both
choose to be and if the relationship ever fell apart or one of us met the
"person of their dreams" (gag!! choke!!) we would end our relationship, he
said we were lazy and weren't able to make a REAL commitment to
one-another. (like he and his ewe have) GET A CLUE!! Just because my
relationship isn't dictated by some dumb-shit, Hallmark-Card idea of
"romance" or "commitment" doesn't mean that my fiancee and I are "not
committed" to one-another!! We're getting MARRIED!! Yeah, we must be
preeeeetty lazy....
Allegedly Christian bible thumpers who throw every noncontextual verse of
the Old Testament at homosexuals while conveniently ignoring the New
Testament edicts to "Judge not lest ye be judged." and "to love one another."
They can all kiss my pasty pink queer ass!
Corporate sexual harassment policies that seem to assume the female
gender is so ungodly delicate that if a woman in any way discovers the
likelihood that her male co-workers actually have tongues and penises,
she'll immediately be traumatised for life.
Women who discuss their bikini waxes in the hallway, at work, in loud
voices, near all the guys. You're fucking advertising, you stupid twits,
and we all know it. What the hell kind of man are you going to get on
the strength of describing the lovely formation you had your bush
trimmed into? These same women are going to turn around next week and
yell sexual harassment when some guy they don't think makes enough money
tries to take the bait.
Poodle girls. You know the type. Cute little things with all the lovely
accessories and the nicest hairstyles and the fancy jeweled collars and
almost as much brain as a shoebox.
Guys who tell blonde jokes ad infinitum in round-robin fashion as though
they're actually still funny.
Guys who pretend they don't masturbate. Oh, come ON. You talk about sex
all day, every day, you have the hots for everything with tits, you've
NEVER gotten anywhere talking to a woman even on the rare occasions you
have the balls to try some cheesy pickup line on someone who wouldn't
give you the time of day (which is everyone with a measurable IQ), and
you expect us to believe that you actually get laid? Or do you think
your self-control is so obvious?
Guys who think getting drunk makes them sexier. Oh, yeah, women LOVE
guys that stumble, slur, and puke. Mmm-hmm.
On a related note, guys that think WHAT they drink helps. Yeah, no woman
in the world can resist guys who puke up $300 worth of single-malt
Scotch whiskey instead of $12 worth of beer. It's just so much SEXIER,
you know. And the aroma is definitely richer and more mellow.
Women who get drunk thinking it will attract a guy. Look, I don't think
shots of tequila make you any sexier. I don't think "God, I am soooo
drunk" is a mating call. Anything that dulls sensation and retards
reactions doesn't exactly strike me as something that I want a potential
lover indulging in, and while moaning may be sexy in bed I really don't
think groaning qualifies.
Guys who look at me like I'm nuts when I say someone that doesn't look
like a supermodel is sexy. Supermodels look like Barbie. Barbie is made
of plastic. Plastic is not a turn-on. Likewise silicone, for any poodle
girl reading this who might be considering implants... one word: YUCK.
Guys who get extraordinarily uncomfortable when I say another guy is
sexy. Especially when it's them. What's the matter... afraid you'll
catch something? I don't expect you to say it back, you know.
Women who assume I'm gay because I said another guy is sexy. What, like
when you said some actress was sexy, it meant you were a lesbian?
Women who go to singles bars to meet men and then complain the dork they
picked up there at one A.M. last month is always drunk and constantly
flirts with other women. Get a CLUE.
Guys who think lesbians are obviously sex maniacs who must be secretly
interested in having threesomes with guys like them.
The shameful truth to the saying that in order for a woman to succeed in
a technical profession, she must work twice as hard and be three times
as good.
Religious dorks who think just because you have a different belief
system, you must be wrong, required to tell them all about it, and
interested in hearing The Truth.
Anyone who thinks going to church is necessary to be religious.
Anyone who thinks the party they registered to vote under is an adequate
description of their politics or anyone else's.
Women whose entire ambition in life is to get married and raise babies,
so they don't bother to educate themselves after high school. Look,
there's nothing wrong with that ambition, but it's no excuse to sit
around and do nothing with your presumably functioning brain while you
wait for some guy to spontaneously fall in love with you. It would help
if you had something to TALK to him about, you know, unless you really
believe your tits are all you need to attract men. (Yeah, I know... they
are, if you aren't picky.)
Guys who think IRC stands for 'International Repository of Chicks'. Guys
who can't tell whether you're male or female from your name. Guys who
just assume you're female *and* looking for cybersex *and* interested in
them. Guys who open a conversation with anything involving 'cum',
particularly when they use 'face' in the same sentence. Guys who ask
what you look like after you send some hot and steamy poses back. Guys
who deny that they're jerkin' the gherkin when their typing has been
going straight to hell for the past ten minutes. Guys who get grossed
out when they find out they just got their rocks off with another guy.
Guys who do all of the above and proceed to call ME the pervert. Hey, at
least my keyboard doesn't need a sponge bath. I was too busy laughing at
you.
Guys who think lingerie is a *romantic* gift. Guys, lingerie is about as
romantic as a dildo. If you wouldn't give your partner a dildo, chances
are you shouldn't be giving her lingerie. (Actually, the analogy is
imperfect, because she might actually *enjoy* using the dildo.)
Boner pants. You know what I mean. Baggy sweatpants without underwear.
The kind that sort of lift, cling, and wave it about. Excuse me, but
could you PLEASE put that thing away? We really could sort of infer that
you had a penis by virtue of being male, and that's about all we need to
know.
Anyone who thinks only women find guys like this disgusting.
Men with "No Fat Chicks" tattoos ... hmmm, should I get a tattoo that
says "No Short-Dicked Guys"?
The male co-worker of mine who had the audacity to call me into his office
on a Friday and ask if I was depressed ... when I answered "No", and asked
why, he said he was worried about me because I hadn't worn any
lipstick that week. HUH? I wasn't aware lipstick was a sign of your
mental state. Excuse me, Mr. Sensitive ... it's December, my lips
are chapped and they hurt. I see you've shaved your mustache ...
are you having a nervous breakdown?
Older people who say, "Wow!" "She's 15 going on 45!". As if I can't
be 15 AND have a brain at the same time....
People who say "You can't possibly know what love is!"....
People (especially macho men) who think that my opinions and attitudes
are "Just a phase".
Guys who automatically think that because I am Mexican and Puerto Rican,
"Wow. She will sleep with me!" or "She must be a slut." or my personal fave,
"Where is her red lipstick, silver hoop earrings and supershort dress?"
The photographic inanities of Anne Geddes. Yep, the ones with all those
darling little cherubs (ick) crammed into snail shells, pea-pods,
flower-pots and other 'quaint' objects. They're just so sickeningly cutesy, and
they're *everywhere*! And the sandwich I just ate is about to come back
up and take a bow, so I'd better quit now...
Women who turn a blind eye while their asshole boyfriends
abuse/neglect/molest their children! How many more
newspaper articles am I going to read about a 2 year old being beaten to
death by the mother's boyfriend?? Wake up bimbettes! Here's a
clue...if you don't instinctively and actively protect your children
like a lioness protects her cubs, then give them to someone who will.
Then run, DO NOT WALK to the nearest clinic and have yourself
sterilized.
When your company's idea of management is one completely spineless and
afraid-of-anyone-not-like-himself male buttwipe commonly known as "The
Human Yield Sign" and a completely dominating yet
fearful-of-any-other-women-in-the-professional-environment female
"religious right" strange-o who together spend time writing things in my
review each quarter pertaining to my inability to be politically correct,
to bite my tongue more often, to be more of a mediator in situations
involving conflict, and to be more positive and upbeat. All because I
tell it like it is. There is a difference between blunt and mean - blunt
is honest, mean is just mean. These two prove that regardless of whether
a boss is male or female, they can be afraid of women in general, be more
afraid of strong women, and have little or no professional clue.
Management is an innate personal skill, not something you can teach
people who close off half of the human race due to fear.
Guys who can't get it into their heads that they don't look like Ethan
Hawke with their stupid goatees!
The "enlightened" guy that responded to my casual statement that I wanted to
have a baby (said in a social group situation) with "Why???!!! Women can do
ANYTHING these days, why would you want to do something so meaningless?"
SHEESH -- go buy yourself a clue!
Women with the same attitudes. If YOU choose not to have children, fine --
but don't consider me anti-feminist because I WANT to. As I understand it,
Feminism is about equality, and NOT being ashamed of being a woman -- it's
not a denial of your womanhood! If you've found the role you wish to play in
society, great -- but DON'T try to tell me that I must fufill the SAME role.
People who assume that if you get married at the age of 20, you are pregnant.
Men who think women are not good enough to serve in the Military, and the
women that are just too damn prissy to.
The same women that will not do a damn thing because - Oh my god, I just
might break a nail or mess up my hair!
People who can't deal with the fact that people might think they are a
lesbian.... you know, those people who start every sentence that might
remotely support gay rights with "I'm straight... but...." Get a life!
If you are secure in your sexual identity it shouldn't matter what
people think of you, and what's such a big deal about being considered a
lesbian, anyway?
People who assume I'm heterosexual.
People who say, "It's OK", "Hush" ... when you're talking (rantng) TRYING to make a point!
The expression: "I did it for love."
Powermongers, social snobs, and petty gossips.
The patronizing terms, "silly girl", and "clever girl".
The guy who keeps a woman simmering on the back burner while he
pursues a relationship with the "girl of his dreams"...and even more contemptible
is the pathetic fool who sits there and simmers and waits it out...
hoping against hope that she will be next...stupid twattie...
The teenage guys in my neighborhood who gangbang on young girls and
refer to their girlfriends as their 'pussies' or their 'whores'. It's even worse
when all the girls do is giggle... Not just sickening, frightening.
Men who have this idea that no matter what their job, income or status in
life they are all somehow entitled to the same supermodels who date rock
stars. As if just being a man makes you automatically irresistible to all
women, no matter what. And whining because these perfect, beautiful women
aren't falling into your lap. Hello!!! If you have some Drew Carey type job
and are an average guy, you will attract average women! Having a dick does
not entitle you to the same women who date rock stars. So get a reality
check. And that goes TRIPLE if you dress like a bag of laundry. While looks
are not everything, women are not going to cream their pants at a guy who
dresses like a hobo, wearing the same dumb parka for ten years, baggy
jeans, slobby tshirts with your gut sticking out, smelly sneakers and in
general, dressing like a teenager at 30. Women of any taste or
discrimination are not going to say, "Gee, under that exterior I bet he's
really hot". No, we are going go, "EWWWWW! He looks like such a loser!"
Guys, there are decent clothes stores all over the place. You don't have to
spend a million bucks to look decent. There is no excuse for wearing the
same clothes for ten years, even if you LOVE them. Wear those rags at home
and that crappy t-shirt to sleep and do our eyeballs a favor.
Parents and Inlaws who stick their noses into their ADULT children's
reproductive choices.
People who assume that because a bisexual woman is married to a man
she must be promiscuous, or using him for some "heterosexual
acceptance". Just because someone is bi does NOT mean she wants to
have 3-ways.
The brand of "feminist" who thinks that because I am married that I
have this need for dependance on a man. The fact that I waited until I
got a degree before I got married doesn't seem to affect them either.
For me, marriage is not a sign of weakness or submission - it's a
commitment.
People who respond with a patronizing "Well isn't that nice, sweetie",
when I finally convince them that even though I'm a (SHORT) 15 year old
GIRL, I can lift things, build things, use a computer, work with power
tools, live my own life, and think.
Incredibly skinny women and "hot" guys. (The Barbie and Ken couples!)
People who say, "So who are you going to go out with now?", when they
hear that I recently broke up with my boyfriend.
Obscenely long fingernails that render a woman "useless" when it
comes to the most basic of tasks, because, god forbid, she might
"break a nail".
Women whose whole self worth lies in their breast size.
My beautiful friend who can't afford to pay her rent, but wants to
finance a $3500.00 boob job!
Men who think that because they hear a woman's voice on the line, they
must have accidently got the billing department, (instead of technical
support), and men who, because I am a woman, will argue with me as to if
I can help them or not.
Helen Gurley Brown and that retch-inducing rag she edits, "Cosmopolitan".
Martha Stewart.
The term "Cootchie Cutters".
Guys who find it necessary to continuously tell me I'm spelling Grrrrl
wrong
People who stop talking to me after chemo. I have had cancer for 5 years
now, you only just noticed that I was sick when my hair fell out.
People who tell me I am too young to die, that I am 25, that it's such a
shame........Hello! I have lived my life without comprimise can you say the
same?
People who want you wear a wig or hat to cover the fact that you are
bald because it makes them feel uncomfortable.
The lesbians who can not cope with the fact that you identify neither as
butch or femme.
Men who advertise in the "personals" asking for "slender, petite,
youthful, muscular, fit, energetic, supple, physically active," females
under the age of 40. and then you meet them, and they've lied about
their age, weight and physical condition, and they're really old, fat,
and ugly, but don't want to hang with you, because "you're carrying more
meat than I find sexually attractive."
Passive-aggressive losers who will NEVER admit to being pissed off at
you, or try to talk to you about stuff they find annoying; but *WILL*
talk to your supervisor, manager, and colleagues, or any casual
acquaintance, complaining about your habits, or your work, or the timbre
of your voice.
Arrogant fuckheads, male or female, who will sit in front of you with
their stupid bare face hangin' out, and tell you all about YOUR culture,
religion, ethnicity, class, etc., while COMPLETELY ignoring your
attempts to correct their blatant and idiotic
misassertions/representations. extra points if they ARGUE with you
about something you KNOW to be true of your own personal knowledge, and
there is no way they could acquire that knowledge because they do not
belong to that group.
Guys who say that they are attracted to your independence, and then two
months later, tell you they can't deal with the relationship anymore
because of a decision you made that was independent.
People who don't know how to take my appearance, so they automatically label
me with labels they have obviously never had any experience with. i.e.-dyke,
lesbian, whore AIDS girl, & countless others.
The people that have never called me any of these names, but upon seeing a
picture of me with my ex boyfriend say "wow- you're not gay????"
That Meredith Brooks "bitch" song --that's the sorriest excuse of a song
depicting "what its like to be a true woman" I've ever heard-vomitvomitvomit
People who say, "oh-you'll want kids when yr older" and then give an "Oh these
kids today" look to the other adults in the room.
So-called "bitches" who think just because they gave themselves that label
means that they can treat people how ever the hell they want to.
The assumption that just because a band becomes "trendy"(ie sublime, beck,
garbage) it means that they have no talent whatsoever (by the way-i think
that sublime deserves honorable mention on the pop culture list because of
their song "date rape")-luv-aNNE
Patronizing managers who, while you are trying to voice a serious
concern, interrupt you with, "Now what are worrying over, you little vixen??"
Boys in my PE class who tell me to "fetch" the ball and "hop to it".
Women who KNOW they are a size 14 squeezing their big
asses into a size 6, 2 PIECE, SPANDEX outfit....
People, friends or strangers who automatically think that if you are sad
or in a bad mood you need a hug. Just let me be okay? If I need help,
I'll ask.
People in chat rooms who ask you, the second they meet you, what your
stats are. Hello! The reason for going into a chat room is to meet
people through personalities!
When bartenders/doorpersons look at my i.d. and claim (in surprise)
"Wow you were born in 67? You look so much younger."
Men who think that "WOW, YOU'RE TALL!" (I'm six feet tall and very happy
to be), is a charming and innovative pick up line and a good excuse to come
over to talk to me. I congratulate them on
their firm grasp of the blatantly obvious and remind them all that they
will be guaranteed to receive a "Wow! Are you ever short...(stupid, ugly,
smelly-as applicable)" in response. When you learn to converse as a
socially intelligent human being I'd be happy to talk to you, but I don't
have time to listen to drivel.
The slobbering, drunken idiot who wandered up to me in
the middle of dinner with my boyfriend at a nice restaurant and
lasciviously slurred "YOU MAKE BONES ACHE!" complete with wink and
obscene tongue motions. Though the idiot was summarily thrown out of the restaurant on his
ass, I did ask the maitre'd to throw him off the nearest bridge, but he
thought that was a little harsh. I didn't.
Sales clerks in Home Depot who (if you can find them in the first place)
assume you're a moron who can't hammer a nail, because you're female.
The whole biological clock concept. Yup, I'm 45 and I *still* don't wanna
have kids.
Women who think that, because you are a man, the only thing you are interested in is getting in their pants
Men that are so afraid of a REAL relationship, that they have one one-night-stand after another.
Women that say: "All men care about is looks", and then proceed to date the best looking asshole they can find.
Anyone who blames their parents' divorce a decade ago for the currently
pathetic state of their life. Get over it, most of us have!
Men who assume that my assertive attitude must be because
"some boyfriend burned me". Worse yet, the patronizing types who say,
"You'll be okay once you've found Mr. Right", despite my careful explanations that I'm married and
I don't even remember what my ex-boyfriends look like.
The phrase, "Do Fat girls Fuck?" Assuming that I am so desperate because
of my weight, that I will sleep with any Neanderthal that comes within
fifteen feet of me.
The raised eyebrows, gasps and whispers I get when people find out my
marital status is "militantly single". (If anyone asks why I don't have a
boyfriend, I simply smile sweetly and reply, "Because I'm having way too
much fun with yours!")
Guys who ask you out, and then spend the whole time talking about how fine the waitress is.
Above guys who are offended when you check out the waitress
PeOpLe wHo TyPe LiKe ThiS..DECIDE ON CAPS OR SMALL CASE! DO
YOU THINK ANYONE CAN READ IT LIKE THAT? Besides, it makes you look like a
moron who keeps hitting the caps lock.
Women, married or single, with or without children, who refer to each
other individually and/or collectively as "The Girls."
Women who allow themselves to be dominated by any person and then wonder
how it happened- you give the person the power when you allow it to happen!
People who, when analyzing their own behavior, mistake rudeness for
"assertiveness," and shameless self-aggrandizement for "confidence." It
is possible, and frequently preferable, to be comfortable with your
abilities and opinions, to advance them, and to assert your rights,
without riding herd over others. I also hate people who, when analyzing
others' behavior, have the reverse problem.
Sweeping generalizations about people, and genders in particular.
(For example: "All men are pigs," or "Women should be seen and not
heard.") Stupidity, arrogance, manipulation, and self-victimization
abounds, regardless of which chromosome is paired with the X.
People who are "above" using proper spelling,
punctuation, and grammar for any reason, but especially "because it's
just e-mail." Also people who use the term "irregardless." It's a
one-word double negative. THANK YOU for ranting on these folks.
People who think I'm always on the brink of flying off the handle, just
because I speak my mind and I'm not afraid of expressing emotions. I say
something that sounds even remotely un-easygoing and they say, "Calm
down. Don't worry so much! Just calm down." You keep on telling me to
calm down and I really WILL fly off the handle.
Mothers-to-be who go ON and ON about how wonderful it is to be pregnant,
and how you can never be truly happy until you experience the sheer joy
of feeling a new life inside of you. GAGGGGG!
Tree-huggers in their 12 mpg SUV's wearing birkenstocks and sweatsocks.
*shudder!*
The "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus" books. This is the
sentiment of the "vive la difference" crowd that says men and women are
different and always will be, so there can never be equality. Men and
women have the SAME physical, emotional, mental and spiritual needs--
the only place they differ is in their anatomy!
Women whose goal is to get married by graduation. Those who think
they're so much better than everyone else just 'cause they have the
engagement ring. And when you tell them you don't to get married, they
say, "Oh, I'm so sorry for you" or "You're dooming yourself to a life of
loneliness" or "You don't know what happiness really means." I
personally find freedom much better than being attached to someone just
to banish my fears of being alone.
Candace Cameron and other women who get married really young. And when
you have the gall to tell them they're too young, they say "I'm not just
getting a man so I won't have to be alone, it's TRUE LOVE!" How long
will your "true love" last? Think about it.
The endless barrage of personality tests. Do you know there's now a test
to determine your personality by the shape of your lipstick?! I must
admit, at first I thought MBTI, Enneagram and all the others were fine
because they're just like horoscopes. But I've had it with having even
my most mundane of actions psychoanalyzed-- maybe the people who thought
up these zillions of tests really have NO personality?
My almost-21 friends who say how much they look forward to getting drunk
once they hit the fateful day. As if that's the be-all, end-all of
turning 21? All it gets you is a massive hangover the next day.
People who assume that childless women are selfish and self-centered, or
child-haters. Hello, but some of us don't want to have to deal with
dirty diapers, midnight feedings and colic.
Men and women who ask "so when are you going to start a family" - as if it is
any of their business. These men and women also go on to either advise me to
"just relax" in order to resolve my fertility problems (great approach, does
that work for other medical problems, like cancer and heart disease?) or they
are assholes who have the nerve to suggest that it we are egotists, wasting
money trying to "make a clone" or that it is "God's will" that I can't get
pregnant on my own.
Insurance companies that classify fertility coverage as "elective" or, better
yet "experimental" and deny coverage. Rest assured, the men receive all the
treatment they need, no questions asked. Their treatment and testing is also
less expensive and far less invasive (read: less painful).
The Catholic Church's hypocritcal view on surrogacy (they don't condone it).
Excuse me, wasn't the Virgin Mary a surrogate?
My friend, who will stop dating a great guy because he could stand to lose a
little weight or isn't a GQ cover model, then gets pissed (and tuns into a
weepy, whiny 2 year old) when men dump her for the same reasons.
The same friend who continually pursues men who treat her like shit,
complains about it, but does nothing to change the situation, like maybe
looking past the ponytail and cute ass to see if a brain and a heart reside
in the body as well.
Barbie dolls that exclaim, "Math is hard!" --As if I already don't have enough
females that I help with their math homework because teachers have given up
on teaching math to girls, and I need a doll to help discourage even more
females from trying to enjoy math.
Guys whose code you've debugged multiple times until 6 in the morning who
don't want to get involved because they "don't want to hurt you" by having a
"meaningless, short-term relationship" and then, three days before the end of
the term, get involved with a bimbo you introduced them to, trustingly, since
you assumed that they'd pick you, their intelligent, code-salvaging savior,
over some teehee-ing, tits-in-their-face, "I need help turning on my
computer," tight-shirt-wearing wench.
Guys who think that the answer to the question, "Are you a virgin?" is
somehow a good indicator of how experienced/talented you are.
People who ask me to "grow my hair long again just for them."
People who assume that because I'm Hispanic, I can't speak
English and start talking to me in Spanish even though I was just holding a
conversation with them in them in English.
Guys who can't express their feelings and expect you to know how they feel.
People who whine and complain (beyond measure) about having to deal with
long-distance relationships. Yes, it IS a drag, but having the
best interests of your loved one AND yourself at heart sometimes
means pursuing your goals in separate locations. If these goals are NOT
worth pursuing, then get together, or go ahead and break up for
chrissake, but DON'T complain just because you have something a lot of
the people listening to your whining may not--a relationship with
someone you (presumably) care about who is (presumably) worth waiting
for.
Women who THINK they are "Heartless Bitches" because they use sexual manipulation, act like
princesses, lead people on, use men to gain status and material posessions, and cheat on their boyfriends/husbands
- When in fact, this simply makes them lying, using, manipulative assholes.
All the Janes, Sues and Marthas that try to hook me up with every Tom,
Dick and Harry dork they know because I'm 30, unmarried and childless (by choice),
and they figure I can't possibly be happy unless I've got a man in my life.
Yeah...right.
People (women as well as men) who say I must a lesbian, a man-hater, or have
PMS simply because I am a strong, independent, educated, assertive woman who voices her opinion.
What's up with that? What does sexual orientation have to do with the
ability to express yourself? I don't understand the logic behind the
assumption that a woman who's able to change her flat tires or express her
opinion hates men??? Ditto with the PMS thing.
Women who spend every coffee break, lunch hour, happy hour...bitching about
their husbands/boyfriends not doing this or that around the house. Three
questions for you ladies: 1. Who in your household lights the furnace, mows
the grass, changes the oil, washes the car, kills the bugs, takes out the
garbage...don't these things count? 2. If he's so horrible that you feel the
need to spend every spare moment bitching about him why don't you throw his
sorry ass out or leave him? 3. If you want to stay with him then why not
love him as he is and shut up already? Accept it or change it but quit your
damn bitching.
Anyone over the age of nine who whines for any reason, ever.
People who say "why isn't a pretty girl like you hooked up yet?"
Those inane, bleached-blonde, dingy women who contribute to the myth that
blondes are stupid.
Men and Women who are full-fledged adults in all other aspects of their lives
yet they speak baby-talk to each other. WRETCH, GAG!!!
People who bitch about observing their religious holidays. If its such
a problem for you - don't BOTHER! Lent is a time of reflection on your life. You
don't give up something just so that others have to listen to you bitch about how
much you miss chocolate or sex or whatever... For God's (or goddess or WHOEVER
you believe in) Passover is a time of celebration of your people's
FREEDOM! Stop bitching about how sick you are of matzo - if all you do is whine
about it, you are MISSING the POINT.
Women who walk past all the other women in the office to ask a MAN if
he'll jump-start her car or change her flat tire (I don't recall any
mention of a penis in the tire-changing instructions).
Women for whom learning how to jump-start a car or change a flat tire is
beneath them.
"Self-reliant" women whose answer to mechanical problems is to pick up
the cel phone and call a man.
Black men who automatically assume I'm a traitor if I date a white man.
White men who think I'm so damn exotic because I'm Black.
Straight men who ask me for a threesome when they find out I'm bi.
Straight men who "wanna watch."
My stepdad, who points to a certain verse in Leviticus and yells loudly
that all gays and lesbians should "be stoned". Hello? And the same Bible
says "Thou shalt not murder???"
People who say, "You'd be pretty if you weren't so heavy." Go to hell.
People who say that I'll stop being bisexual "when the right man comes
along." Puh-lease.
People who insist that I can't be bisexual because I've never had sex
with a woman. Ever heard of "waiting for the right person??"
White men who automatically assume I'll get the best jobs because of
"affirmative action."
Women who let these idiotic fucking jerks walk all over them.
People who can't distinguish between "considerate" and "whipped."
Just because I remember a birthday or pick up a pack of smokes because
I noticed you were running low doesn't mean I worship you.
*RING* It's the clue phone, and it's for you.
The term "whipped."
People who think there's something wrong with me just because I decided
to wait for someone I really care about for sex. Worse--the people
who, on hearing of this, tell me "That's so great," or similar drivel.
Please! If I ever need your approval, I need a boot to the head
worse.
People who think I'm always in a bad mood/depressed just because I don't
walk around with an idiot grin on my face all the time, or don't bust a gut
laughing when they tell a lame joke, or don't jump up and down and squeal
like an eleven year old when something relatively exciting happens, and
tell me to "smile" or "be happy" or worse, asking me what's wrong and then
following me around asking "are you sure?" when I tell them nothing's
wrong.
Regular office workers who treat me like I'm uneducated and incapable of
anything other than answering the phone (this, of course, after they spent
ten minutes explaining the phones to me even *after* I tell them, several
times, that I'm familiar with the phone system) because I'm a temp, and
gasp in astonishment when they find out I'm also a free-lance writer
(assuming, of course, that they bother to find out more about me than my
first name).
My baby sister's youth pastor who runs to our mother everytime said sister
exhibits any signs of individuality or free thought, concerned that she's
on drugs. Or when the same pastor blames my sister's "negative behavior"
(read: she disagreed with something he said) on her boyfriend. As if the
child doesn't have a brain in her head to think for herself.
The guy I had a relatively decent first date with, so I agreed to a
second, on which he spent the entire time talking about marriage and what
he's looking for in a wife. When I tried to politely put him off of the
topic by telling him I didn't want to even think about marriage until I was
much older (I was 22 at the time) and told him all of the goals I plan to
accomplish first, he said "Oh, come on. You're old enough to get married!
And you wouldn't need to do all those things because I'd take care of you."
The same guy, who, after months of me not giving him the time of day, came
up to me on my first day back to work after my dad died, HUGGED me from
behind, and said "I'm sorry to hear about your dad. Here's my phone
number," he pressed a piece of paper into my hand, "I'm going to leave this
up to you. I still like you and I want to take you out. Call me if you
still like me."
The SAME guy, who was overheard a few months after that, telling his
friends that I never called because I had withdrawn into myself after my
father's death, but he didn't understand why I couldn't at least be
friendly to him, and that--and this is the kicker--I should have gotten
over my dad by now. I didn't know they handed out psychology degrees with
high-school only educations. Freakin' loser.
People who ask me if I have a boyfriend, and when I say no ask "Why not?"
Women who tell me I could get a boyfriend if I'd flirt more.
People who say "Don't worry, you'll meet the right man someday." I'm not
worried. I have much bigger things to worry about than whether or not I'll
ever "get a man."
Women who say "You'll never get married if you don't lower your
standards." Like a lifetime of being my own person will be so much worse
than being married to a fat, stupid, cheating drunk who can't even hold an
intelligent conversation with me, let alone satisfy me in bed.
People who, for some reason I can't quite fathom, get defensive and angry
with me when I tell them I'm celibate, or tell me I wouldn't be so uptight
if I could just get a good lay.
People who think I'm a lesbian because I don't throw myself at every man I
see, or because I refuse to make an idiot out of myself over a man.
My gay male friends who would take me out and then have me sit between
them, and one of them would insist on paying for my meal, so that people
wouldn't think that they were together.
Gay guys who haven't admitted that they're gay, that want to "date" me as
a cover.
Guys who start discussion forums along the lines of "Why do caring,
sensitive men who are oh-so-loving finish last/sleep alone/remain single" when it's
patently fucking obvious they're looking for someone to say "Hey, I'm looking for
that kind of guy let me pick you up!"
Le Chateau-- with their wanna-be "Paris Runway", size 6x clothing, and sales clerks to match.
Cashiers at grocery stores who insist on saying your name when you check
out with a credit card - its not Mrs, its Ms, and you pronounced my
first and last name wrong, and I just came here in my grungies to get
some emergency rations, and I don't want everyone else in line to know
who I am!!! For god's sake, just go back to "..and have a nice
day!"!!!!
Men that remark "It's such a shame" about women who reduce their
triple-D breasts when they are only five feet and weigh a buck-oh. Don't
they know that these things can fuckin' hurt? Too bad men can't get
blessed with ridiculously huge nuts.
Looking at all the stupid things both men and women do, laughing or shaking
my head in disgust, and then realizing that I'm guilty of those very same
things from time to time.
The Spice Girls
Bleach bottle bimbos who let their roots grow so long they look like
they have a pet skunk on their head.
Guys who think that they are hardcore drug-dealers if they have a pager
or cell-phone with them wherever they go, but in fact it's probably just
so that they can get a hold of their mommies when they forget their
lunch-money.
Ugly fucking morons who think they have the right to judge whether a
girl is good-looking or not, even though they are probably never going to
get laid in their lives.
Guys who automatically think you're anorexic if you are skinny. Hello, but
some people are actually born that way.
Girls who think that acting like total airheads is going to get them a
decent caring guy, but are more likely to land a complete asshole.
Companies who "ghettoize" female software developers. My class had 50% women
in it. Women took the top grades. They are out there. What percentage of your development staff is
made up of women? (And I don't mean doing QA and documentation.)
How many of those women are relegated to doing maintenance coding vs hot new development?
Some little wet-behind-the-ears piss-ant who thinks
his degree and a couple of co-op terms gives him the right to arrogantly
question every aspect of my designs, and blithely ignore
my 15 YEARS of experience "doing" the things (in the REAL world) that
he has only read about in books, or played at in class assignments....
Naively enthusiastic New-grads who have not yet developed a healthy degree of cynicism (read: "understanding of REALITY").
"Idealist/Purist" developers who overdesign systems and expect the world to be
perfect so that their "elegant" solution will work - conveniently losing
touch with reality, economy, how people (who aren't developers) really work,
and USEABILITY.
"Dinosaur" developers/managers who immdediately distrust all new technologies, spurn
new ideas and insist on 'waiting to see what the market does' (long after the market
has already established itself) before they make decisions -- choosing to follow (with some misguided idea of 'risk-management'),
rather than research and understand the new technology so that they can be
leaders in an industry that threatens to leave them, and their companies,
in the dust....
People who are afraid of disturbing the status quo.
The latest "fashion" trend of baggy oversized pants hanging down around the knees.
Around me, it's "pull it up, or pull it off, buddy, 'cause you're making
me sick!". And add to the list: condescending attitudes, wallet chains, and nasty
slimey hair with enough grease for two car engines.
When people say, "Oh, I'm so fat!", or some other such drivel and get all
insulted if you agree with them.
When anybody claims the bible was written by god and therefore anything
it says should be taken as "The Truth". Especially when the old
testament is used to back up sexism. Hello! It was written by men in a
time when polygamy was in, women were bought, sold, etc. You don't
slaughter a goat on your altar every week, do you?
Guys who assume that you are dancing to attract attention, so come up to
you and start trying to butt-fuck you in the middle of the dance floor.
My uncle who advised me recently to "Put yer arm in a sling, kid, or
else you're never going to get married. If you get too picky, your
choices are going run out and your NEVER gonna get married." It
doesn't matter that I have an advanced degree AND a career by age 26.
Those idiots that go on Jerry Springer or any other trashy (as if they're not
ALL trashy) talkshow looking for some answers and comfort when in reality
they're being made a joke of in every bar and household.
Children beauty pageant queens.
Beauty pageants.
The fact that the news just said that since JonBenet's body wasn't mutilated
meant that a woman did it.
The JonBenet case altogether.
The constant flow of AOL discs in my mail.
Anyone male that asks me what its like to have sex with a girl, and any girl
that says they wanna have sex with a girl but don't know what to do about
it... *GEE* lemme think for a second about what you could possibly do about
that?!!!
Inconsiderate men who leave disgusting messes in the men's bathroom:
I mean, how old are you to be using the men's
restroom all by yourself (or at work?)? I'm guessing that penis of yours
has been with you for life--haven't you learned to use that flexibility to
aim it? And--what's with the pubic hair around the rim of the toilet? Are
you rubbing it with said penis?
Rancid little pukes fresh out of college who believe that
watching episodes of "The Real World" entitles them to all
the respect of a full grown adult. Yet when a stressful,
pressure-filled situation occurs at work, that's a bit
beyond their ability to handle, they freak out and kick
a plastic (filled) garbage can halfway across the office
while simultaneously using all the profanity their mouth
can spew.
Women who apparently can not talk about anything more interesting or
intellectually stimulating than how their husband/boyfriend won't "let" them
do such and such a thing, how childish said husband/boyfriend is, what they
are thinking of doing with their hair and makeup, and how desperate they are
to get thin. Please, please, please for goddess' sake, read a book once in
a while or do anything at all to come up with something good to talk about!
Females who buy tapes full of songs telling them such nuggets of truth as,
"A bitch is a bitch, and a ho is a ho" and that all women are either
"bitches" or "ho's". And then sit around listening to it all the time!
People who use the word "Christian" as a synonym for good, honest, upright,
ethical, integrity, etc.
People who send their elementary-school age children out *alone* to canvass
door-to-door for their religion.
Women who complain that they have no lives and are miserable all the time,
yet can't wait to find someone to "share their lives with". If they put
half the energy into getting a life that they did into whining about not
having a man, they could be interesting people.
People who compare legalized abortion to the Holocaust.
White hetereosexual men in the USA who want to complain about how rough they
have it, what with all the good jobs going to the blacks, the gays, and the
women. Um, yeah, right.
"Bride's" magazines and all the associated crap that goes with them.
"Line Dancing"
Men who tell sexist or otherwise stupid jokes in bars, within earshot,
in order to get a reaction, and then act surprised when you do.
Men who inadvertently offend you (not so bad) but then, when you
enlighten them, they apologize to you EVERY TIME YOU SEE THEM FOR
THREE MONTHS.
Men who insist on complimenting something about your appearance every
time they see you, and then when you say "thank you", they say, "no,
really, I mean it"...several times.
Girls that stay with worthless guys just because the guy says he loves
her(when all he wants is a booty call)
Stupid women who don't vote and clearly don't care that their own
grandmothers fought like hell against fools their whole lives and didn't
get to enjoy the fruits of their own labors.
Guys who sit on their asses burping, farting,
picking their noses, going through stacks of Playboy magazines, calling all
women they have contact with "bitches", and then having the audacity to
ask outloud, "Why can't I get a girlfriend?"
Men who won't let women buy them drinks.
Women who expect men always to buy the drinks.
Guys who think they have to "protect" me because I am a woman, even when I am several
inches taller than they are and outweigh them by 20 or 30 lbs....
People who assume that just because I'm a woman, I have no knowledge of any
music, literature, or foreign culture. This is especially insulting because I
am Korean, I am an Advanced Placement student, and am on the way to starting
my own record label. Maybe you should ask before making assumptions.
Grrrrr.
Insecure women who get into a relationship and then attempt to suffocate their
partner by insisting on doing EVERYTHING as a "couple".
Women who feel threatened by their partner's female friends.
Guys who think that because a woman enjoys sex, she is a hooker who will pop
anything with a penis that walks by.
Companies who hire "models and strippers" to stand by booths at
computer conventions.
Any guy who wants to buy a cool car, because he thinks it'll "get him laid".
"Lifetime Programming for Women", or as I call it, "The All-Victim Network"...
how many sappy-ass movies with Melissa Gilbert as The Stalking Victim or
Judith Light as the Abuse Victim are we suppossed to stomach???
TV movies in general... women are raped/abused, and the cops won't help! No
one believes them! When they are confronted by some male, they cannot fight
back! Oh no!
Men whose entire sense of self-worth is centered in their genitalia.
Women whose entire sense of self-worth is tied to whether or not
they are in a "relationship".
Women who don't understand why I absolutely refuse to wear
disgusting pantyhose and heels and complain about how much their
feet and back hurt at the end of the day. Rocket science, it ain't.
Men who strut around when their wives get pregnant with their second,
third, fourth child, and then complain about how their children have
inconvenienced their lives and how they have no money. Deal with it,
morons!!!
My blood pressure skyrockets when I answer the phone at work, get asked
"May I speak with the pharmacist?", and when I say "I AM the pharmacist",
they act all surprised as if a GIRL could never do that kind of work!
When you go into ANY chat room and guys keep asking you if you want to
have cybersex. What the fuck are they thinking? That we go into those
rooms just to satisfy their prepubescent urges? Have they forgotten
how to masturbate solo?
Idiot males at Radio Shack that assume that, since I am a woman, I need
help choosing electronic parts. One such moron, when I finally came to
the counter to make the purchase, asked what I was making. "An
impedence-matching, attenuating patch cord," I replied. He said "Wow. I
couldn't BEGIN to tell you how to make one!" Gee, I guess it's a good
thing I already knew.
Guys who think they can "change" a lesbian. (I had a (married) boss who
wanted me to "give it a try" with him too see if he could do it. I
should've asked whether I could try to change his wife.)
The inefficient, inept and incompetent male office coworker who
constantly interjects his unsolicited suggestions on my projects and
refers to the female office staff members as "girls".
When a man, or should I say boy? Points out that, "You've got huge tits".
As if this was a big fucking news flash. Do they really think that they
are the first one's to ever notice?
The married secretary in my office, who asked my married
male counterpart (across the office) what his wife thought about all the
overtime that he puts in with an attractive single woman (meaning: ME).
As a Systems Engineer, most of what I do to keep an network running, takes
place after 5:00 p.m. I am fed up with frustrated married women making me
the topic of office gossip; Go home and seduce your husband rather than
fantasize about my overtime hours - trust me it will be more satisfying.
Also, the next time you are watching Oprah w/your husband bitching about
the inequality between the sexes, remember that you have helped to further
that cause.
When I tell a guy I am a Women Studies' major and he says: "Me too. I
study women. Get it? ha ha.", or some similarly inane and unfunny
comment. I've heard it before, asshole, and it wasn't witty then.
Emotionally evasive men who, when confronted with a personal question,
quote Marx, Nietzsche, James Joyce, (fill-in-the-blank) in lieu of a
personal response.
White men who confide in me that they have a "thing" for Black, Hispanic
or Asian women. Do they think that I (as a white woman) will be turned
on by their exotic racist fantasies? Almost as incomprehensible as it is
prejudiced and stupid.
Women who pee on the toilet seat because *their* ass is too pristine to
make contact with the seat, meanwhile making it *truly* unsanitary for
others! I expect this at the ladies room down at the Philharmonic, but
it's expecially annoying when it happens at a coffeeshop or some other
place I hang out in. Why don't they just issue these women dixie cups at
the door and let them pee in that? It would be a whole lot quicker too.
Men who automatically assume you have PMS if you express anything that
remotely resembles a feeling.
Ex-wives who never worked a day in their lives and expect a HUGE divorce
settlement. The ride's over. Time to get off and GET A JOB.
Women who get half of everything in the divorce and STILL don't think
that was enough. Get a satisfying job/career if you have the "Give me
MORE" syndrome.
People that think just because I'm well built, with a larger than
average chest, that I'm a brainless, vapid sex maniac. Hello there!!
Some of us prefer celibacy to mindless, pointless flirting and sex.
Women who sulk about being lonely, and whine that other women who
are out there having fun must be nymphosluts, who "get ALL the guys
and have ALL the fun".
People who complain about their circumstances, ride the same ruts
every day, tell you what they want out of life, but refuse to go
after it in any positive way. If you point out the fact that they
are just sitting on their asses waiting for life to happen to them,
they start demanding that YOU suggest answers or alternatives on
how they could change their lives. Of course, they are not genuinely
looking for answers - they just want to shoot down any suggestions
or ideas you might have.
Self-professed "Nice Guys" who think the only alternative to
their passive behavior is the other extreme of "being an asshole".
People who say "I'll change when the right man/woman comes along."
Women who complain "I'm so fat!" while eating fries.
Women in clubs who sit and pout and look depressed as a means of picking
up guys.
Straight guys who are afraid of gay guys making passes at them. You
wouldn't make a pass at a lesbian, would you? (Oh! That's why you're
afraid! You WOULD make a pass at lesbian, because you probably wouldn't
be able to tell she's gay! And you've seen those slimey come-ons your
friends use, and shudder at the thought of someone trying one on you)
Now it all makes sense....
Articles entitled: "How to be a cool girlfriend" in teen magazines.
Romance Novels!
Females who wear the chunky "Minnie-Mouse" shoes,
micro-skirts, baby-tee's, bright makeup, and hairclips, and
incessantly *WHINE* about how "their" men (with pedophiliac
tendencies???) "...won't take anything I say seriously!!! Why???"
Gee, Kewpie-Doll (Read:cutesy little air-headed plaything), I don't know
why any guy would take you seriously...
PLEASE!!!!! The Helpless Little Girl is an anachronism! Life is too short
for cliches. Grow up or shut up!
As an asian woman I hate it when guys come up and say, "....you know, I
looove and adoooore asian women..." These guys are obsessed with a cliche.
I wanna say, "So? Get your own fucking tea dammit".
The term "Titty-Bar" and men who stare at my breasts while talking to me.
People who believe you want to hear EVERY bad thing that has happened to
them. All the way down to that broken pinky nail. (Could they buy a
clue?)
Men who think telling them to "fuck off" is playing hard-to-get. If I doused them with pepper gas,
would they consider it a proposition?
People who think my jet-black hair is some sign of mental imbalance. I'm not depressed, asshole!
When my hair was blonde three years ago, did that mean I was ditzy and vivacious? It's HAIR,
get over it!
The fact that black females aren't talked about when it comes to
feminism. In case you haven't noticed we put up with OVER 300 years of
color AND sexual oppression and I'll be God-damned if I'm going to take
it anymore from women OR men.
Rags targeted at the young female market (YM, Seventeen, Teen, Sassy),
that have articles on things like "The 50 Sexiest Guys in the World",
but never anything like "The 50 Most Intelligent Women".
Men who insist on helping me carry anything. I'm not stupid. If it's too
heavy I'll ask for help. I don't work out just so I can lift my mascara to
my lashes.
Guys who know you are not available but
they are still following you like a lost puppy. It is not cute.
GET A LIFE AND STAY OUT OF MINE!
Guys (and solidly-built women) who glance at me and assume how "delicate"
I am. I am thin, yes. I stand up for myself, yes. I get angry at people who
stereotype, yes. Firstly, standing there and apologizing by saying "I
didn't mean to hurt your feelings.."--hint :you didn't--you pissed me off!
Secondly, at work, if there is something bulky or heavy, don't just rush up
to "rescue" me. I am a grown woman who can probably lift the load, myself.
Those women who "can't", who are built more solidly than I, are either just
being lazy or looking for attention by promoting the "delicate feminity"
image--and I step before those women and cut off the charade by just
walking past them, letting the visuals speak for me: I, from my 5'8.5" ,
120-lb frame grasp the edge of the filing cabinet and *move the darn
thing!*, allowing the woman, with her 5'6", 150-lb frame to stand there and
stare, thwarted, as Prince Rescue Charming (excuse me while I swallow my
gag) stares and calls me a "feisty little lady". If I need help, I'll ask.
If you feel you need to compliment a female for being able to solder or
move filing cabinets or work programming concepts, step into the nineties
and take stock of your surroundings! The next century is due to roll around
and it's time for women and men to quit this dance of roles and get *REAL*.
Women who think that just because my life hasn't been all roses I'm a
whining permanent victim. My first boyfriend hitting me is as much part
of my life as my going to college, and it's not some deep dark guilty
secret I have to hide to be an empowered woman. Power is learning from
one's mistakes.
People who assume I can't speak English or understand what they're
saying (especially if they're talking about me) though I can speak
better English than most of them could ever hope to. Simply because I'm
Asian that automatically qualifies me as a foreigner though I was born
here (US) and have lived here all my life.
People who come up to me and ask me, "Where are you from?"
"Brooklyn", I respond. "No I mean WHERE are you from?"
"I just told you." "Your parents then."
Like it matters to them where the hell my parents have been, have come
from, and are going to. And what business is it of theirs to ask me my
ethnicity on the spot so they can form instant assumptions about me!
It's called s-t-e-r-e-o-t-y-p-i-n-g.
Women/men who upon seeing their ex in the street suddenly get all
"touchie feelie". Some nerve: they shit all over you, dump you, and then
tell you they love you and how great you look. GIVE ME A BREAK!
Women(?) who approach you in a tavern, say hello, then proceed to tell
you how upset they're feeling and how they need someone who is tender
and thoughtful to help them through their time of need. Mind you, all
the while they're trying to find out if you will think and care about
THEM, should you begin dating. On top of all this, you have to keep an
eye and a hand on them to catch them when they begin to fall over after
six pints of Guiness. Great first impression!
Men who date women twenty years younger than them, but act surprised
when they learn your husband is five years younger than you.
Men (and women) who, when speaking to me, expect me to be pleasant and to
sugar-coat the truth. Worst of all, they get all defensive when I tell them
exactly how I feel; regardless of how "bitchy" it may sound - "Don't be so
*cranky*." Don't be so damn sensitive.
Any writer who refers to an intelligent, well educated, powerful,
take charge female in a position deserving of respect as "feisty"
"perky" "zippy" or any other term best applied to a little yappy
mutt with a bow in its hair.
Any writer who starts out articles on same said women by talking about
their cooking skills, housekeeping skills, their spouse, or their
relationship with their kids. When do articles on men talk about this?
Shannon Lucid, the PhD biochemist who was a trained astronaut and spent
more time in space than any other female, had an article written about
her that started with "While she was on the space station Mir with two
Russian cosmonauts, Shannon made Jello every Sunday!"
The fact that little boys get toy guns and little girls get "mall
shopper" and "secret crush"
Females who talk in rising intonation, and say things like "Like, I
hate that none of these people take me seriously".
Men who claim to be "nice guys" but tell me I'm "hateful" when I say
that men who don't pay child support should be publicly beaten.
Women who sleep around, tell everyone ALL the details, and STILL have
lousy sex. You can't replace quality with quantity.
Women who fake orgasms. Who are you helping? Dig your fingers into the
back of his head and don't let him (or her) go till you're done. A REAL man
would take it as a compliment.
People who look at me and say "YOU? work out every DAY?" Just because
I don't have the emaciated body of a supermodel, DOESN'T mean that I sit on my
couch eating bon bons all day. I'm stacked, and can do hours of aerobics!
Men who ask me what I do and then follow it with "Woooooow, Beauty
and Brains too? " Like its so hard to understand that a hot little
number like me can be a successful Engineer *and* Professor.
The commercial for some shampoo in which we
see this incredibly successful, intelligent and confident businesswoman
giving winning presentations, closing deals, etc, and then at the end of
the commercial, when they ask her the secret to her success, she responds
(in true bimbo style) "It's my hair!!!" I guess my fiancee can drop out of
her MBA program now and buy some shampoo.
Pre-teen girls whose goal in life is to be just like the Alicia
Silverstone character in "Clueless". NOT because she learns that it's
as important to be a nice, moral person as it is to look good, but
because she has "such cool clothes" and she always "knows what to wear
and how to look" and because she gets a boyfriend at the end. Children
who are only going to take this away from what was actually a fairly
well-done satire based on a Jane Austen novel should not be allowed to
see these things.
Lame-o bastards that tell me "it's okay with me if you're a dyke" as if
I asked for their *permission* and especially when I know they're going
to go home and jack off to the very idea of it all.
Women who spend endless hours arranging the portion of their hair
visible to them (the top/front), oblivious to the fact they are
going out with the back looking like a stringmop!
Men masquerading as feminists who ask you your opinion on their assinine
behavior because they want your validation for it: a co-worker told me
about his 25 year old friend who is dating a 17 year old girl and then
asked me what I thought about it. But when I proceeded to tell him that his
friend was a jerk for taking advantage of a teenager, he got defensive
and said well, she's real mature for her age. I could see that this
idiot thought it was pretty cool to be dating (read: sleeping with)
someone that young. disgusting.
Snerdverts (sniveling nerdy perverts, aka HNG's {horny net
geeks}) who try and pick you up on irc with the ever-charming
"r u m r f?" My reply of choice is: "Irrelevant. My gender
is of no concern to anyone who can't spell "you"". For some
reason, they rarely send me a second message.
People (men) who say: But you don't look like a feminist
Women who say: 'I'm not a feminist, I never needed feminism.' In other
words, I'm all right, Jill. Sisterhood still means something, you know.
Women who think that because they're lesbians they can treat women any
way they like. If they were men they'd be bastards.
HUMPING LEG SYNDROME: They think they look so good and that they are "the
life of the party", they become oblivious to what is happening outside of
their penis. I always say "They are like a horny dog humping my leg"! Ya gotta shake em
off!
When guys think that it makes them sexy if they're fat and greasy. yuck.
Women who think they need a man to survive.
People that say I'm proper when I talk, even though I'm black, what am I
supposed to do? use "you" in every other sentence?
Even worse people who say, "she's different." or "Oh, she's really white
with a tan".
Men who are afraid of aggressive, assertive women in bed.
Racist people.
Celine Dion's sappy music.
That chick's hair on MTV, the fro girl!!!
Men and women who think that "talk" was designed to be used in concert
with "finger" as some sort of semi-random dating service. When an
individual target responds to the said annoying talk request, the target
is greeted with "your name looked sexy when i fingered it." Get a
fucking clue.
Going to a "take back the night" rally where a woman bares her heart to
the crowd by telling them about how she was raped. The person directly
after her starts her own testimony with "Well, that's a hard act to
follow." Hello, are there any brain cells there?!! This is why many
women feel there is a "club rape" out there.
People who, when electronically chatting, use "u" for "you", "r" for
"are" and seem to think it's hip. These are probably the same people
who say "10-4 good buddy" on the CB radio.
The "Baby" look: hair clips, really tight shirts, pacifier jewellery,
gaudy make-up.
Women who insist that they are stupid because they made a smiple mistake
that ANYONE can make.
Women who date the biggest assholes they could possibly find. A good
friend of mine was asked what she liked about the said asshole, her
reply: "Well, at least he doesn't beat me."
People who ENJOY drinking themselves sick!?!
Working in the university computer science lab and being told
('complimented') by the resident male virgins that "I must be so smart
to work here."
My EX-boyfriend questioning my decision to go back to school and finish
my degree with, "Why do you want to work so hard and spend all that
money? You'll never do anything with it anyway - you're just going to
get married and have kids."
That same EX-boyfriend wanting to know why I always have to open my
mouth when I see something I don't like, like my boss reaching for my
ass - "why do I have to rock the boat so much and be such a loudmouth?"
Men who wonder why women in their 9th month of pregnancy get cranky -
after all, women were designed to have babies. It's our biological
destiny as decreed by GOD, so we should just shut up and bring them
colder beer.
Men who don't understand why a woman wouldn't necessarily want to stay
home every day, all day with her children until they turn 18.
Men whose biggest problem in life is that now that the little wifey has
gone back to work, the dishes aren't getting done on time.
The Dick-Head mentality of people who start talking about me
being romantically/sexually involved with my co-worker just
because we are working together on a project that is stereotyped as a
"mans job". People can't accept (or even imagine for
that matter) that not only am I skilled in this area - but I am damn good
at it, have been doing it longer than my male counterpart, and I enjoy
it! Their small brains can't grasp the idea that *I* am teaching
*him*, not "following" him around.
Girls who giggle and laugh their way through
a sentence.
White guys who wear backwards hats, tuck-in flannels, "No Fear" t's, tight
jeans, and hiking boots, and refer to themselves as "nigga" and a woman as
a "bitch" or "ho".
When my husband tells people, "don't let her fool you; SHE's the real
boss in the family."
Corporate buzzwords like "teamness" and "synergy."
Going out to lunch with my grandmother and the waitress asks ME what my
grandmother wants to eat. Just because she's old doesn't mean she can't
speak for herself!
Mentos commercials
Adult children of rich parents who refuse to grow up, move out, and get
a life of their own
People (apparently physically fit and in no acute distress) who stand on
street corners holding signs asking for money, when there are help
wanted posters in several of the businesses on the same block. If you
want money, do what the rest of us do. Earn it.
People who own sport utility vehicles because they're the latest yuppie
status symbols, and who think they are then able to drive without any
regard for the conditons and traffic around them
Rejects who think a woman majoring in computer science is "cute" or
"surprising." Or say, "Must be a lot of available, lonely men to flirt
with!"
Vain idiots who blow vast sums on liposuction, calf implants, scalp
rotations, or silicone. You want to be popular that bad? Send that wad
of money overseas, it could probably feed everyone in some impoverished
village over the course of winter.
Greaseball grooming techniques which certain men think is irresistable
to "the ladies".
Listen up: Combing your hair with the Exxon Valdez may be many things,
but "attractive" isn't one of them.
Bourgeouis twits who insist on inviting antisocial losers to their
parties or to join their groups because they feel SORRY for them and
don't want them to feel left out. No matter if the idiot acts like a
baboon, insults people, has no personality, alienates everyone or ruins
the whole thing, it's more important for THEM to look charitable. And
they don't want this person to feel left out? They SHOULD be left out!
Let these losers rot at home where no one can see them so the rest of us
can have a civilized and enjoyable time!
New-age sensitive guys who feel it's THEIR responsibility to tell YOU
when you have been harassed. I.E, some guy tells a raunchy joke. "OH,
MY, what a misogynist! You've been sexually harassed! You should
complain!" Thanks, but I can decide for myself when I've been harassed-
I don't need some emasculated dweeb to tell me. Same goes for guys who
tell you how THEY would handle a situation you have had to deal with.
"If some guy did it to me, I'd... etc etc." Thanks, but it's my life- I
don't need you to write the rules for me. Isn't the whole point supposed
to be that we can take care of ourselves?
Overtanned, leathery and prematurely crosslinked 19 year old sorority
sisters and the fraternity himbos that love them.
Nouvou-riche vulgararians who think its a-okay to just stop the leased
Mercedes dead in one lane during rush hour and wait, oblivious to the
torrent of honking and abuse heaped on them from behind, while their
wives pops into the deli for a half kilo of whitefish.
Insomniac losers of the world for their hearty support of psychic
hotline infomercials. Thank you for turning my television from a benign
ambient noise generator into a omnidirectional sludge pump after
midnight.
Miniature backpacks. Miniature poodles.
The million man march; the promise keepers. What the fuck is this, a
thunderdome for morons? Concept alert! Want to deepen your relationships
and respect for women? Stop these ridiculous prole-fests. Go home. Love
your wife. Talk. Listen. Don't fuck around. Support your family. Stay
away from the damn TV.
The phrase "Don't you worry your pretty little head about that..."
When I open the door because I happen to come to it first and a male tries to
take it forcefully from me.
When I realize that I've made a mistake in becoming physically involved with a
guy, tell him take he means nothing to me just to get rid of him, and he just
looks at me with a confused look that says, "Hey, that's my line."
Guys that yell catcalls at me on the road. What do they want me to do, yell
my phone number back at them?
People that assume that since I wear black I must be depressive/ a druggie.
Guys who think "hello" is a sexual advance.
Guys who think being in the same room as them is a sexual advance.
Guys who think being female is a sexual advance.
People who say "You have such long hair." (Really, I do!?!) or "Have you ever
cut your hair?" (Um, yeah, it's only down to my waist!)
People who think I must be a lesbian because I hugged a friend of mine,
especially the two hicks that declared that "it's all right" with them.
Nurses who ask how I am and look peeved after I respond, "Fine, except for my
45 minute wait in your waiting room."
Any argument against equal-rights that begins with "well most
women...". Like equal-rights has anything to do with MOST people! Most
MEN don't make good scientists, or good politicians or whatever-- Still
if any individual man wants to try, we wish him good luck. We even
praise men for stubbornly attempting to succeed in something they have
repeatedly proven themselves incompetent in. (Bob Dole for president, for
example)
Those big n'dumb troglodytes who feel the need to install gigantic
sub/penis/woofers for their crappy laquered GEO prisms for the sole
purpose making equally pathetic bimbi on the street turn their heads and
notice them.
Anyone who says "knowhatamsain" over and over in the belief that it can compensate for
their 700 word vocabulary. No sir. I don't know what the fuck you are
saying because I'm still waiting for you to string seven words into a
linear sequence, knowhatamsain?
The way Richard Gere wiggles his ass so smarmily throughout American
Gigilo whenever he's walking. Also, the implicit message in every one of
his films that Richard=class and women somehow "need this," but won't
get it until they put out for it.
People who call me a "waif"- or even worse, tell me I'm not a "REAL
WOMAN" because I am thin. I get this a lot from women who think they
are feminists. They loudly denounce models like Kate Moss, saying how
she is a horrible example to girls. I do not think that we should
idealize too-thin model types, but why must we act like thin-ness is
something abhorrent? A waif is described in the dictionary as "A stray
animal or person, esp. a homeless child." GET THIS: I am a 42 year-old
woman. I am an artist, a writer, and a business owner. I AM NOT and
have never been a "waif"! I DO NOT have anorexia! I am not a slave to
some fashion industry standard, and I am NOT the enemy! I am thin and
always have been, it runs in my family. That's it. I am just as much
of a real woman as someone heavier.
Women who refuse to call themselves feminists (presumably because they think it's unfeminine) but
expect to be paid the same as men, have the vote and not be felt up on public transport.
Ladies, you're feminists: act like it.
Men who pretend to be helpless until a woman does it for them. We all had to
learn to sew on a button sometime.
Department store security guards who tail me because I'm wearing jeans
and carrying a motorbike helmet. Double for stores where they suck up to
me when I go in wearing a suuit, but cut me dead if I'm wearing jeans.
Men who call me "love", "lady", or "sweetheart"-- I'm none of those.
The English royal family - the whole horse-faced, pea-brained lot of them.
There's no justice in this world when a bunch of inbred, syphillitic twits
can be the recipients of obscene wealth and mindless fawning adulation
simply because of the accident of their birth - and speaking of accidents
of birth - what an argument for abortion! It's so bloody pathetic how the
Brits think this ultra-dysfunctional family of maladjusted nincompoops is
some kind of pantheon of gods - every time some royal personage farts, it's
headline news. Chuck and Die - what a perfect couple - when they're not
talking to plants or getting tubes of water shoved up their ass, they're
using the media to wage war against each other - to the point where the
entire British media is divided into "his" and "her" camps - pathetic!
When I tell my boss that, after several tries, the software I'm using
won't work no matter what I do or what numbers I input, and he insists I
must have made a mistake. Then when he tries the same thing and the
software STILL doesn't work, he insists it MUST be the software, because
HE couldn't be wrong.
Men who think that the mere act of showing me their
cocks will turn me into a humiliated, scared little girl.
Phallus worship lives on, at least in
their pathetic little minds.
Cute bimbos who wear too-short skirts & heels at work (when the dress
code is 'casual'). And then they socialize & giggle with the boss.
Help Wanted Ads for "bright, bubbly People Person" types. In other words,
to succeed in a job, a woman has to be a cute little suckup bimbo. What
about us quiet, thoughtful, hard-working types who actually WORK instead
of sucking up?
Intelligent women who pose for Playboy and talk about how they think men
should treat women as equals. Gee, that's a way to get respect.
People who assume that I'm a lesbian just because I hold hands with a
female friend. I don't understand what holding hands has to do with being
sexually attracted to someone.
Men who scream and honk at me for walking along the road. I guess that's
the price I pay for being a woman.
People who look at you as if you are some sort of strange alien freak if
you don't happen to have a car and are walking somewhere. Why do ya think
we were given legs?
"Friends" who come over to visit and insist that you lock your dog up in
another room, then let their kids tear up your house.
The same "friends"- who, when you politely ask them to control their
child (Trying SO hard to be nice: "Oh, dear, I'm afraid little Elroy
might hurt himself smashing my glassware, please make him stop") nastily
accuse you of being a horrible person and hating children.
People who put you on hold forever because they have Call Waiting!
Cutesy-poo answering machine messages!
People who hang up and get mad at you if you have an answering machine:
"I ain't talkin to no damn machine!"
Nitwits who take advantage of you when you politely let them go ahead of
you in a grocery line, and then invite their three friends who are loaded down
with stuff to cut in, too.
Women who tell me I'm not "feminine" because I don't crave
underwires, chocolate and babies. Or mini skirts or high heels or hair
ribbons or lacy nightgowns...Well, the list goes on.
Women who tell me "Don't worry, honey, I'm sure you can loose
weight if you really try!" Get a clue! I'm a big fat bitch and I love it!
Mechanics who ignore me and address my husband when it is clearly
*my* car being repaired. Besides, my husband doesn't know jack shit about
what goes on under the hood of a car!
Men, women and doctors who insist I'll change my mind about
having children. I didn't want them 10 years ago and I sure as Hell don't
want them now. Of course, these total strangers do have the right to make
this decision for me.
ANYTHING written by V.C. Andrews. You have serious problems if you think PENIS=MANHOOD.
R.L. Stine. Does this guy have some kind of telepathic hookup to a typewriter? How the
bloody hell is it that he published ten or twelve books a year? Tell ya what, Mr.
Stine--- get some TALENT, publish 1 or 2 a year--- everyone'll be happy. Really.
Those bimbos who come up to me as I am walking through Dillards to get to the mall
proper, spray me in the face with perfume, and then ask me if I like it. Sure. I love
getting a big unexpected faceful of something that smells like radioactive potpouri.
Congress needs to pass a bill stating that it is perfectly okay to react violently to
these people.
Parents who allow their children to be screaming, psychopathic monsters in public, then
get *tres* pissed off when you ask them to have their rugrat stop screaming the theme
song to "Speed Racer" at the top of their lungs, acting like you just tried to rape the
child or something.
The other end of the parental spectrum, who bring screamy little kids into public
places, then whale on their asses like they were bongo drums in the middle of Target.
The asshole in front of you at Burger King who finds that his order is messed up, and
then spends (this is the honest-God truth folks) FOURTY-FIVE MINUTES hanging out the car
window, chewing the take-out lady's ass out about it. No one appreciates this or learns
from it--- whether you have a valid point or not, the people behind you are willing to
lynch mob you.
Born-again Christians that tell you that you are going to Hell. Good. Thanks. I'll enjoy
myself on the way there.
Black folks who get offended and yell "I'm african-american!" if you call them black.
That's okay. But when the guy next to him says "I've never been to africa! Black and
proud!", well...
People who get their own web page, post something like: "Hi! This is An Nonymous's web
page! I like beer, football, and Def Leppard!" and then never update. Ever.
Dickwads who wander into chat rooms TRYING to have serious discussions--- rape support
rooms come to mind--- and do their very best to destroy that room--- "MY ASS! MY ASS! I
CAN'T FIND MY ASS!" "Hello! Would anyone like to fellate my aardvark?"
"llalalalalalalalalalal POOP!"--- or those that intentionally attempt to be as rude and
shitheaded as possible--- "I've raped four women and gotten away with it." Do these
people think we are impressed? Then again, maybe they aren't TOTALLY useless--- they
serve as a reminder that the human well of stupidity is apparently bottomless.
"The Rules", by Ellen Feinand Sherrie Schneider - BLEAH - a book with all the
depth of a "Cosmo magazine" article, which tells women to be submissive and manipulative,
in order to "get a man". Completely demeaning to us all.
Men and women and expect you to be supportive when they say stupid things
like, "Maybe we'll get back together", after their newly-departed-ex has just
treated them like shit.
People who worship sports and sports heros - it's a fucking GAME. When
your kid's dying in the hospital or trying to learn how to read, do you
want Michael Jordan there with the scalpel or the textbook? No. He plays
a game, and yes he does it well and deserves respect for that, but
that's all he does. Pay the teachers and social workers $35 mill a year
and the basketball players $4.50/hour and see what a better place the
world is.
Women with definite financial goals for the men they date. You want
blonde hair, fine. You want a guy with a big schlong, fine too. You want
a guy with a steady job and a well-kept home, fair enough. You want a
guy with a $75K income and a Lexus, why not just start hooking and put
it on a cash basis? 'cause I don't really see the difference.
Self-proclaimed social Darwinists and anarchists. Amazing how these
little pinheads who squeal 'survival of the fittest!' seem to think
they're the ones who will survive, huh? Wanna see real anarchy? Go to
Rwanda and watch twenty guys with machetes murder your father and rape
your mother. That's anarchy, not sitting around a apartment sucking a
bong and reinventing the social compact.
Conservatives. These people slay me. See, the problem is that little
five-year old has just got to pull himself up by his own bootstraps and
get a job. We're just rewarding those welfare mothers for having the
fathers abandon them and the Operation Rescue gang(who I never seem to
see at the abused children shelters) leave them holding the fetus. Time
to pull the plug and let social evolution (see above) run the society.
Most of these people who say such things have forgotten or never known
what real hardship is, and simply dislike having to wait behind large
families (especially, gasp! Those of different
races/nationalities/socioeconomic classes!) while in line to buy scones
at Piggly Wiggly. No sex education, no birth control, no abortion, no
rules to make fathers help support the children they help create, no
support for the resulting out-of-wedlock children, send all the kids who
can afford it to private school. Sound good. Three words: "Grapes of
Wrath".
Double standards of all kinds. Men who say they like girls with big
tits are labeled pigs. Cosmo articles about how to determine the size of
a man's penis by looking at his nose are just fine 'n dandy, tee hee
hee. Here's a novel concept: if there's something you don't like
happening to you, don't do it to others. Don't burn a cross on someone
else's front lawn if you don't want one on yours.
People (especially parents) who freak out at nude scenes, yet watch
"The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and think that's just okey-dokey. Lemme
see; Schwarzenegger kneecapping 85 people, good; man and woman have
good, equal, mutually satisfying sex, bad. Here's a hint - two people
having sex, shown in a loving and trusting way, might teach you
something. Leatherface sawing a guy's legs off for your entertainment is
simply masturbation without the sticky fingers.
Average-looking men/women who despair because Charismatic Opposite Sex
Members (COSMs) don't come running. Hey, bud, the weave isn't fooling
anyone. Lady, you're 40% overweight. Like goes with like. Stop watching
the 19-year-olds with 1% body fat and look for people you have something
besides a DNA sequence in common with.
"Friends don't let friends drive drunk." Since when did it become my
responsibility to wrestle car keys from drunken idiots and rescue them
from their addictions? I ask if they're OK to drive, if they're not I'm
happy to take the keys and get them home safe. If they say they are,
they go forth into the world. Here's my secret to avoiding DWIs - I
don't drink if I'm going to be driving, and I don't drive if I've been
drinking. Your right to drink comes with the responsibility to handle
yourself. If you tell me you're OK, the family you kill is your sin,
dipshit, not mine.
People who won't make even a simple effort to improve their
grammar/spelling/etc. We don't have to all be Strunk and White, but
those self-righteous incoherent pricks who can't express themselves in
words deserve every miscommunication they make and flame mail they get.
It's a written medium, bud - incoherent spelling and poor grammar, in
fact the inability to simply HAVE A POINT to what you write, is the
exact same thing as running around with your underwear outside your
pants. You may call it individuality, but people who see it think you're
an idiot or an asshole.
Women who yak and yak about swearing off men then hop in bed with the
first Himbo who asks politely. Also women who 'just want to be loved'
and seem to define that as getting loaded and hopping onto the first
wandering penis that crosses their path, then wondering why they can't
find a man who accepts them for who they are. Here's a hint: spend the
first date opening your soul instead of your legs, then watch which guys come
back for a second and which don't.
Guys who spend $350 on a first date and then claim they 'just wanted to
make her smile.' Bullshit; you wanna make her smile, tell a good joke.
These losers want to show the woman from the git-go what kind of a
balls-out serious "caring person" they are (i.e. look how wonderful I
am! I just dumped a boatload of money on you and I don't even know your
middle name!), and then retreat in stunned amazement when the woman goes
out with them for a while and loses interest. Get a fucking clue and
stop making it hard for the rest of us. It's a FIRST DATE.
The woman I spend the rest of my life with gets everything I have - the
woman I spend an afternoon getting to know in a coffee shop gets a
cuppa java and a muffin if she wants one. See the difference?
Guys who rant on about women and their only use being sexual. The same
ignoramuses who talk about wanting a flat spot on their girlfriend's
head to use as a beer coaster while getting a blowjob break down and cry
like little children when the woman they've been disrespecting up and
dumps their sorry chavinistic ass. "Why did she hurt me?" I don't know,
maybe it was the twentieth time you told her to shut her fucking bitch
mouth because you were watching MacGyver. Got plenty of time for
catching reruns now, dontcha?
Teenydoomers - I know, they're kids, and I was stupid too when I was a
kid, but DAMN it's still annoying. They're never gonna work for The Man.
Get a clue, Spanky - IBM or SuperAmerica, we all work for The Man, and
The Man is just as enslaved to us as we are to Him.
Girls who call guys they're not interested in a "nice guy". It's called
honesty. Look into it. Standing there watching you blow smoke up my ass
when we both know what's happening is a thousand times more insulting
and demeaning than for you to simply say, "you're a bloated buffoon and
I'm not interested." If you can't respect my looks or charm, at least
respect my intelligence.
Minorities who are just as intolerant and bigoted as the majority they
rail against - just because God made me a white male does not
automatically mean I have a hood in my closet or a slap across the face
waiting for the woman of my dreams.
People who hate kids. Fuck you and die. Anyone who doesn't like
children (People who just don't want kids of their own are fine, I mean
people who actively dislike all kids) has got some kind of major
malfunction and should just stay home and clean their assault rifles. I
hope WC Fields is running a daycare in the afterlife.
The fact that armed robbery can get a person 7-20 years and an armed rapist
can get 3-7 years with parole...
Condescending men who call me 'dear' 'sweetie' 'honey' or 'girlie'.
Guys you slept with once by mistake and now you can't get rid of.
Married men who tell you that "my wife doesn't understand me". Then what
the fuck did you marry her for?
Married men who tell you that their wives don't fuck them anymore.
People that turn onto the main road right in front of you, making you
slam on the brakes to not hit them. And proceeding to drive 35 miles
below the speed limit.
The "FRIENDS" tv-show (if we can call it a show) BARFBARF!!!
Friends that are normal human beings with personal interests and minds of
their own until they meet the guy/girl of their dreams, whereupon they drop
their lives to become that person's willing slave until about six months
later when they break up because they finally realize that they had nothing
in common and EXPECT YOU TO FEEL SORRY FOR THEM.
Friends who want to date someone and first spend months getting to know
them, acting like a perfect gentleman/lady, and finally work up the nerve to
ask them out and are SURPRISED when the object of their affections had
already filed them into the "No romantic possibility" file and says NO - and
then they whine to you about it until the next girl/guy comes along and they
start the whole stinking self-destructive cycle ALL OVER AGAIN!
Work Jerks!
- Flakes who are too busy bitching about the work to help you get it
done!
- Suckups who go whining to the boss about how DREADFULLY hard they
work, boo hoo- so the boss gives YOU most of the suckup's work to do on
top of your own.
- Lazy-assed relatives of the boss who know damn good and well they can get away
without doing anything.
- Inconsiderate nasty women (I'm sure men do it, too, but I haven't
been to the men's room) who leave disgusting messes in the women's
bathroom! Pew!!!!!!!!!
- Morons who use the public address system to say stupid things!!
- Firms that send you to stupid seminars to "learn a new aspect of
your job"- which means you have to drive a long way and lose a day's
pay, and then they get more work out of you for no more money.
Girls with high voices that tramp around in tiny-tiny clothes waving
their bleached BLONDE hair around saying "I, like, REALLY don't know!", or some
equally vapid drivel, and giving intelligent REAL blondes a bad name.
People, who upon seeing an attractive homosexual - say "Damn, what a
waste!" Like, even if that attractive person was straight they would
give them the time of day.
Bimbos with big tits and short skirts who automatically assume that despite
having all the intelligence and charisma of a retarded amoeba, a guy has just
GOTTA be interested in them. Then, when you try to diplomatically explain that
they are not your type they imply that you MUST be gay!!!!
Himbos with big muscles and tank-tops who automatically assume that despite
having all the intelligence and charisma of a retarded amoeba, a girl has just
GOTTA be interested in them. Then, when you try to diplomatically explain that
they are not your type they imply that you MUST be a dyke!!!!
Guys that pull up next to you in their fancy sports cars with the windows
rolled down and blare their stereos so loud that all you can hear is BMMPH
BMMPH BMMPH.
Then they peel out (RRRRCCCHHRRR!!!) Do they actually think this is a turn on??
Guys who can't distinguish between "patronizing" and "nice".
Dress codes (I don't see how an uncomfortable suit makes it easier to
develop efficient C code)
Whiners who interrupt you as you are telling them about something good
that has happened to you (getting a raise, winning 20 bucks in a
football pool, having a good pap smear after two scary ones, whatever)
with: "GEE! Must be NICE!!!!!" and then launch into their own tale of
woe, because ALL they EVER have to tell are tales of woe!!!!
Men who come on to you, and when you tell them that you are married,
reply, "Well, HOW married are you?"
Women who hang onto your husband's sleeve, bat their eyes at him, then
say to you, "You don't mind, do ya, hon?" Right, I don't mind, and you
won't mind if I rip your tits off, right??
Guys who play lacross and the women that love them. *gag*
Women who promise anything especially something sexual "later" or "maybe
a different time" and don't make good on it meanwhile you're rocking
their world.
Women who threaten me that "if i ever cheated on them" they would
dismember/kill/etc. me. The topic shouldn't come up, if she can't trust
me then why have a relationship. Stop acting tough and get real. No
one owns me.
Women who love/ can't live without/ would kill themself without/
respect/ etc. you in private but act "the shit" in public as if they own
you. No one owns me.
ohhhh... Dance Mix USA and Dione Warwick
People who don't take things in context. Lighten UP!
The woman last week who asked
me "Is big hair back in?" My response, "Oh no, actually that straight,
unwashed, greasy looking hairdo you're wearing is really the current
rage!"
BIG HAIR.
People who hold their hand up in front of your face and say "Don't
go there".
Men who see you talking to another woman at the bar and
automatically think you need them to talk to you and continually
interrupt your conversation. Even after you fail to respond to their
inane advances, introduce them to your husband and attempt to totally
ignore them, they won't leave until you tell them to.
People who split hairs. Question: "What time is it?" You answer:
About quarter to three." Looks at their watch and responds: "No
actually it's 17 minutes until three." WELL IF YOU ALREADY KNOW THEN
DON'T ASK ME!!!!
My boss thanks me every F______ day for doing my job, for each
assignment I complete, for showing up in the morning, for returning from
lunch. Cripes, isn't that what they pay me for????
The men at work that feel it's their job to tell me EVERYDAY how
nice I look. The hair, dress, shoes, jewellery etc.. I think these guys
are in the wrong job, they should try working as fashion consultants.
Leave Me Alone. I know how I look, I dressed myself.
When I chair a meeting and the dimwit invitee refuses to ask me
questions he only asks my male co-workers, (after the meeting he
explained that because I had answered the phone one day and volunteered
to take a message for one of the men he assumed I was the secretary).
People who don't even know me particularly well saying with absolute
confidence, "You'll change, it's just a phase you're going through" when I
mention I don't want kids. I've felt like this since I was 16 and I'm
now 30, just when is this miraculous total change going to happen?
People who assume that I am having a sexual relationship with a male
if I spend a lot of time with him...it IS possible to be "just friends".
When male acquaintances feel the need to say "You're just like a
sister" or "Your just like one of the guys", just because you tell it
like it is.
Men who tell their friends that -you- must be gay, just because you rejected their
LAME attempt to hit on you with some lousy line they read in the bathroom,
- one which you have heard about 143 times before.
FABIO!!! *gag*RETCH*barf*!!!
Men who look at a small-breasted woman and say in a patronizing voice:
"Ohhh, I don't mind..."
OR EVEN WORSE: "Any more than a mouthful's a waste, anyway!"
People who talk baby-talk to their dogs and expect you to gush over their
pets in the same insipidly revolting way.
Women who automatically hand over their (usually wet) baby to you, as
if the very fact that you are a woman means you want to hold their wet
baby!
Anna Nicole Smith, marrying that doddering old fart "for love" (Yeah,
right) and then wearing that godawful see-thru white dress at his
funeral with her nipple sticking out. UGH!!!!!!!
People who ask "is it ok if I tell a racist joke?"
Born again assholes who say "no, I don't think TOLERANCE is a sin, but I
think that people should pay societal consequences for unacceptable
behavior."
People who claim that Rush Limbaugh is expressing views you just don't
get to hear in the rest of the mainstream media. C'mon, if there's any
set of views which has been crammed down our throats for the past 15
years, it's the religous right's.
People who think that NPR is "balanced". Yeah, right. Same thing with
McNeil/Leher (or whatever they're calling that tripe now).
Beverly Hills 90210
Euphemisms for firing working people to bolster the bottom line:
"downsizing", "rightsizing" and one I just heard today: "de-layering".
Liberals - they're nothing but gutless apologists for the fucked-up
status quo.
Vegetarians who insist on telling you why they're vegetarians in all the
best politically correct terms. The best I've heard to date (from a
white male vegetarian): "Eating meat is really the a symptom of white
male domination of our society."
Non-vegetarians who find out that you're a vegetarian and ask you "is it
a religous thing?" (use to happen untill I gave up full-time
vegetarianism)
Athiests who are as zealous and intolerant of spirituality as born again
Christians. Jeez, can't you have your own beliefs as long as you don't
proselytize or wear them on your sleeve?
People who judge a book by its cover. I HAVE to wear a suit for the type
of work I do (engineer/technical sales). Does that automatically make me
some sort of monster?
Women that call you and whine about their men and set the phone down while
they yell at their kids and click over during your conversation to have a WHOLE
OTHER conversation with someone else --like you have nothing better to do than sit
there and listen to them talk about nothing...and then they get mad at you because you
don't return their phone calls to go through this again!
My girlfriend that pulls up to a gas station and ask some strange guy to
pump her gas and then asks him to pay for it and he does! Then they exchange
numbers and they go out once, she asks him to pay her rent and he does!
Guys that only call me after 9pm and wanna come over...you never see them or
hear from them in the daytime!
People that say "some of my best friends are black".
Black guys that place ads in the personals that read SBM seeking S
Asian/White/ or Hispanic women only....so us single black women are
not worthy right!!!???
Debates about OJ.
Black men that will not date you if you are not Halle Berry's complexion or
lighter.
30 yr old men still living in their mom's basement.
Black men that have no goals and ambition nor job....complaining about their
oppressor is keeping them down.
Men that went to the Million Man March and still do the same f--- up shit
they were doing before the day of atonement.
People that think because your hair is long that you have a weave.
People that think because you are half-way attractive that you are stuck-up
before they even try to get to know you.
People who think that because I worked my butt off to get through undergrad and
into law school (and use proper english instead of slang), it means I am no
longer in touch with my race and that I've forgotten
about the "little people".
Street bums who ask me for money and I am eating ramen noodles all week and
living off of $50 a month cuz I'm in school.
Street bums that ask me for money cuz they haven't eaten in a week so I go
into McDonalds and get them a burger and they look at me like I am crazy and
throw it away.
People who so insecure that they can't admit to having a different
opinion from someone - even if they've just expressed it.

fifteen yards doesn't notice.

lesbian scene on Cinemax.

suddenly they have a golden twat.
Men who take offense to the "All Men Must Die!" humor page.
BARNEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Guests who masturbate on your good sheets!
Women who deny the existence and effects of sexism just because they
themselves have succeeded in their goals. You don't live in a vacuum,
okay? Look around! I'm glad you got where you are, but not everyone is
as fortunate. These are the same women who the media love to hear from
because who better to debunk the existence of sexism than a woman? Just
because it's coming out of a female mouth doesn't mean it should be
given special attention. It just means the only way these women can
think of to succeed in this world is to associate completely with men
and their power (only further proof that there is still a problem).
Other men who think I'm a "fag" because I didn't appreciate it when
they yelled "nice tits!" past me out the window at a woman minding
her own business on the street... In fact, what REALLY makes me
hurl is men who say, "yeah she was smiling" when they yell anything at
all at women on the street.
Self-proclaimed genuises who believe that they are above watching
TV, reading novels written after 1900, going to movies and listening
to the radio because popular culture might contaminate their pure,
unsullied brains.
Women who think that just because something was written, painted,
sung or photographed by a feminist, lesbian, minority woman, etc,
it's brilliant even if it's amateurish dreck.
Grown adults who insist on playing those moronic Vampire
role-playing games.
Women who are too hung up about their bodies and sex to tell a man what
he is doing wrong.
Women who have the nerve to say sex is good when their man has never
given them an orgasm.
Women who bitch about how bad a lover their man is when they are to
repressed to tell him what he is doing wrong.
Billy Ray Cirus
Kathy Lee Gifford and both her sniveling kids
KATHY LEE gifford...who told this woman she could sing?
Married friends who think that once they are married you become their
personal mission..."Gotta find you a husband so you can be happy like
me!" -- All the while she is married to some idiot you dated years ago and
dumped cuz he was a shitty lay.
Women who have easy childbirth...15 hours is the minimum to truly
appreciate you child ;)
Absentee fathers
Any use of the prefix "cyber", especially as in "cybersex" (read:
MASTURBATING TO X-RATED GIFs)
Alterna-grrrls who wear nothing but way-too-small shirts with a single
heart on them
"Poets" whose literary talent is minimal, but attempt to compensate
for it by writing either (a) expliticitly about sex/excretion/some
combination of both or (b) a rant with no attempt at order or theme.
People who feel the need to attach themselves to "movements."
People who feel the need to pray publicly and as overtly as possible.
We DON'T CARE how religious you are.
People who continually talk about writing a book, starting a band,
getting a job,dying their hair, whatever, without ever actually
doing it.
People who are incapable of having a fair and rational argument over
anything, or attempt to dominate any such argument by not letting
anyone else get a word in edgewise.
People who quickly make a left turn when the light turns green, even
though they don't have an arrow. No one in this nation seems to
know the right-of-way rules.
People who are more comfortable drowning in sorrow -- who feel that
anyone who is happy is stupid, and believe that it makes them superior
to impose suffering upon themselves.
The Christian Right Coalition who assumes
that just because you are an American you are automatically a
Christian.
People, who when finding out that you are an atheist, say they
will pray for you.
Self-proclaimed geniuses who still believe that AIDS started by
Africans screwing monkeys in trees.
Women's magazines like Cosmo, Glamour, and Mademoiselle that insult my
intelligence. For instance, one of those rags had an article on "How
to get HIM to tell you the truth!" At first I thought it was gonna tell
me how to get a man to open up and say everything but no!
It went on to say "Catch your honey telling you he went one place when
he was really out somewhere else? Here's how to get him to tell you the TRUTH!"
- COME NOW!! If he isn't gonna tell me the truth - he's not worth the
money I spent on the damn magazine. If he's gonna LIE, then DUMP HIM
Don't put up with that CRAP!
People that say "God/Jesus Loves you" or "God bless you" - to the
latter I usually reply "She already Has".
People who, whether or not they really understand the work,
write essays about how Twain should have used 'person of color'
instead of 'nigger' or that hemingway/vonnegut/hawthorne/whoever
was a sexist... like what the fuck do these idiots want? They
want us to DIG THESE PEOPLE OUT OF THEIR GRAVES and resurrect
them and make them rewrite their works to suit their dumbass
post-structuralist idea of political correctness?
People who act like they're the first people to ever
get a tattoo or piercing.
People who think having
dyed black hair and pasty white skin is somehow attractive.
People who worship trent reznor, as if being whining, self-pitying,
self-absorbed, and angst-y was something to aspire to.
People who think the following films are the best that cinematic
arts have to offer: the crow, the princess bride, interview
with a vampire, highlander, beastmaster... and people who
read those damn books about elves riding wolves.
people who spell women 'womyn' or 'wominn'... it's a sack
of womynure.
People who take pictures of Tibetan monks dismantling
a sand mandala that they spent all week creating... symbolizing
impermanence. Impermanence, you hear? It's not a fucking
kodak moment for image-worshipping fools.
Anyone who calls him or herself an "artist" under any
circumstances or says things like, "I MUST create!" Yeah,
yeah, yeah.
Anyone who says, "I'm just me." Who the hell else would
you be???
"Sensitive, artistic" men who have pony-tails and goatees,
and blather about Nietzsche and post-modernism.
Smug, self-Satisfied existential Christians. People who think they're too smart to
_really_ believe in God, but are too frightened to accept the
consequences of atheism or agnosticism.
Men who talk about women's appearance as though women were put on
earth for men's viewing pleasure.
Intelligent Grown women who act like five year olds to attract men,
i.e. giggling squealing and being terminally cute (I refer to this
as Gidget's Disease, a name I got from an old Saturday Night Live
Sketch).
Parents who let their rotten, spoiled bratty kids run around public
places screaming and yelling, while smiling indulgently at their
beautiful, natural behavior. And if you suggest that the noise is
ruining your meal, they glare at you as though you're a
child-killer.
Pathetic, guilt ridden baby-boomer parents who think that
disciplining their kids means not buying them a new car every year.
People who look at me like I am from another planet because my head is
shaved, like having short hair makes any woman less a woman. Sometimes,
people say, "Wow, you are really brave to wear your hair like that!" Can they
see that they are not complimenting me when they say that? I wonder if, when
they see someone who is overweight, they say, "Wow, you are really brave to go
out in public while you're that fat!"
People who, when they find out that two women are in a lesbian relationship,
say, "So which one of you is the man?"
Barbie dolls.
People who sit right next to you in a virtually empty movie theater and
through the entire film, chomp noisily on popcorn and slurp Diet Coke through
a neon bendy straw.
Women who call in sick A LOT and use their kids as an excuse (and brag
about how they pulled this at other jobs)
A man who tells you he thinks gay men are totally disgusting because
sucking a cock is just the grossest thing and HE would never put
anything so vile as a man's dick in HIS mouth... but, of course, when
YOU'RE sucking his cock...
Men who think that just because you freely admit that you LIKE sucking
cock that you want to do it ALL THE TIME!
Ugly Fat, Beer swilling Men/Women who sit on suburban trains and speak very
loudly to others who look similiar about how "They don't wanna tie themselves
down ta just wun babe ya know mayte!" (oh, and the accent, too.)
People who treat me as though I am uneducated or inept because I am a
senior office assistant i.e. secretar | |
